Martin Daigle
I have two primary research objectives: A) Study the biomechanical gestures of drummers with motion capture to understand why drummers have such a high risk of Playing Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (PRMD). B) Design a novel hybrid drum kit that will be used as a research-creation laboratory for the integration of acoustic drums, electronic drums, and gesture-controlled parameters.
